>>23574745I think it's inherently reductionistic, and fails in its... rather juvenile attempt to disguise its discrete categorisation of ideologies as discrete categorisation of people—beliefs and systems thereof are multivariate, spectral, multidimensional, and often contradictory
it's evidently the product of a 2D intellect; a linear thinker who likely hasn't internalised the concepts they've appraised as 'enlightened' enough to decide how they actually feel about them
as a set it makes no sense
for example—if we take from 'enlightened' a Metaplatonic Panentheist view, then why would we ever pick a Venn diagram to depict what is—from that 'enlightened' (and thus ostensibly true) perspective—a Gödelian (or perhaps Hofstadtian) relationship between the different worldviews/moral frameworks/music tastes/diets/etc. the diagram attempts to encapsulate?
it completely fails to depict the recursive and self-referential nature of the very strange loop metaphysic it appears to advocate
as some simpler examples of why I think it fails:
>there's heavy overlap between Land Apostles and NRx, not depicted>there's heavy overlap between NRx and transhumanists, not depicted>it makes a distinction between sex addicts and hedonists, and between opiate users and nihilistic hedonists>dimensional jumpers are almost always heavy drinkers in my opinion... there are just some things you miss about where you came from, and the air is always weirdif you fail to employ the inherent function of the Venn diagram in depicting clear fucking super/subset hierarchical relationships, then I ask: what is the point?
even if there's some degree truth to some of what it's saying, I think it's a case of "things which sound cool to me, versus things I've decided I don't like"
and I don't put much stock in the opinions of idiots
